Just because someone took it off a 600 doesn't mean that's where it was originally installed. I have a taillight on my 850 that was never intended to be there, but it is a genuine Ford item.
It is actually off a x01 series Ford. But I found that if I positioned it out there on the end of my fender, the curve of the mounting base was perfect and the taillight lens would be vertical. So I drilled three holes in my original fender (horrors!) and bolted on. It works for me. The third hole is for the wire.
